Say 'No' to Greek Financial Irresponsibility

Posted: 07/06/2015
Now that the Greek public has thumbed its nose at Greece's international creditors by voting "no" in a referendum on their most recent bailout offer, negotiations with Greece on further bailouts should be summarily terminated. Alexis Tsipras, the leftist prime minister of Greece, was audaciously attempting to use the vote to strengthen his hand with these creditors. He was essentially slapping the face the people who are, in effect, giving his country money, because they are not giving enough! It's time to let Greece swing freely in the wind.
